This is the first of four sheets done by Aeromaster for the Revell 1/32 Hunter. They anticipated a huge demand for these which never came as the kit basically was a flop here in the US, though I hear it fared better in Europe. Once again, a kit that was clamored for by many was actually supported (by purchase) by few. And folks wonder why manufacturers are a bit gun-shy about producing new kits.

Anyway, this particular sheet offers markings for two planes. There are only two because of the sheer size of the markings. Both are in the dark green/dark sea grey over medium sea grey camouflage scheme. It will also have a fairly hard edge to it.

First is an RAF plane from 28 Squadron at Kai-Tak in Hong Kong circa 1967. Wing tips on this one are yellow to provide a touch of color.

The other is an FR 71A from the Chilean Air Force. The modeler will have to do some mod work to get the camera nose right, but it doesn't appear to be too daunting a task.

If you need stencils, I believe that Aeromaster also did a sheet of those. This review now concludes the four total sheets.
